We might not win the Europa but at least it'll give us a chance to play some of our academy.

If even one of them comes good that'd be worth its weight in gold, and arguably more than an extra 50m of CL money. Imagine Bergvall, Donley, Lankshear, Phillips, Hall, Dorrington, Moore & co getting minutes in Europe and working their way into the first team, what could be more satisfying as a fan.

Conversely if we're in the CL you know Ange is just playing his first team 3 times a week; everyone's getting injured and it'll completely fuck our domestic season like it did with Newcastle and United this year.
Ah yes, the academy.
That thing that's produced 2 decent players in 30 years or so. Let's forgo Wednesday nights against Real Madrid, and play against Carrybag FC at 5pm on a Thursday to watch the next Tom Carroll come through the ranks.
And pay through the fucking nose for it.
 
They didn’t care when even the refs admitted to wanting Leicester to win the league as the ‘fairytale’ and everyone rolled over for them.

When arse fans said they wanted to lose the EL if it meant we lost the CL no one cared.

Modern sport is ruthless. There is no need to play the Mr Nice Guy, if Arse win the league it swings the balance of them long term getting further ahead of us not to mention how unbearable it will be and how we will look like mugs.

Let City win the league, we beat Sheffield. We have a big window in the summer and look to press ahead with our rebuild so we don’t have to rely on City and actual challenge for trophies ourselves going forward. The EL is a good competition, let try and win that.
Sounds fine ... and then Biss or Romero gets sent off against Sheffield United, and we hear Newcastle have gone 1 up. Always try and win every game ...
 
We have Sheff Utd on the last day and just need a point. EL is a deffo for christ sake.

Anyone thinking otherwise I'll take that bet with you all day long.
 
Let's see what Ange does. Because I predict those who want Tottenham to win this game, not those who want Tottenham to lose, will be aligned with Ange Postecoglou, his team selection, and comments.
Not at all. I think he's been found out and it's when, not if now.
But as long as we have something to play for, I want us to win.

And maybe beating City will help him ease the nerves of those like me that doubt him.

Monday night buy 25 lasagnes from some hotel somewhere.

Keep the receipt.

Tuesday inform the premier league our entire first team squad is a bit ill.

But it’s ok. We can still play Royal, Romero, PEH, GLC, Ragusin, Skipp and Vicario.

The rest has to be our under 23s

We get to see Dorrington, Donley, Lankshear. Moore sone of the other kids.
Job done.

Get on it Aussie Jesus.
Funny post, but also sums up Spurs. Wanting to lose and miss out on ECL because everyone is more concerned about them than us.
